Grantmaking at CAF India

Grantmaking at CAF India personifies our mission of promoting effective giving. We work towards aligning every charitable giving to investment principles and business practices and offer authentic and sustainable solutions to challenges facing the Indian society today.

While performing in the area of money and relationships, our commitment to cause neutrality gives us a unique position to spread wide and serve many. It enables us to engage in the holistic development of individuals and communities nationwide, through the broad multi-sectoral spectrum of non-profit organisations.

Our grantmaking practices redefine the relationship between grants and non-profits. Our practices and priorities are for making non-profits more effective, accountable and sustainable.

Our key strength lies in doing independent and in-depth due diligence of non-profits which enables our donors to make an informed choice about their donations and investments. We have a pool of validated non-profits working across diverse causes in India. Our decade long, proven track record and expertise has helped us gain and retain the trust of many individual donors, national and transnational companies, foundations and institutions.

We also develop, execute and manage projects with a network of credible non-profit organisations and our portfolio is continuously growing. In doing so we aim at providing continued support to the poorest and marginalised sections of the society.
